    Unpacked Content

    UP:DLCS18.6.30

    Vocabulary

    • problem-solving process

    Knowledge

    Students know:
    • when solving problems, one should identify the problem, identify possible solutions, evaluate to select a best solution, implement the solution, evaluate the solution and/or seek feedback.

    Skills

    Students are able to:
    • identify a problem.
    • identify possible solutions.
    • evaluate to select a best solution.
    • implement a solution.
    • evaluate a solution.
    • seek feedback.
    • revise an artifact based on feedback.

    Understanding

    Students understand that:
    • problem-solving is a process that can take multiple iterations.

    DLCS18.8.29

    Create an artifact to solve a problem using ideation and iteration in the problem-solving process.

    Unpacked Content

    UP:DLCS18.8.29

    Vocabulary

    • ideation
    • iteration
    • problem-solving process

    Knowledge

    Students know:
    • that problem solving is a process to find the best solution.
    • that through ideation and iteration, the final product or artifact may be a more polished or appropriate solution.

    Skills

    Students are able to:
    • gather initial data about a topic.
    • informally propose a solution.
    • gather feedback on informal proposal.
    • design a solution to a chosen problem.

    Understanding

    Students understand that:
    • problem-solving is a process.
    • products or artifacts may undergo many revisions after data is reviewed and feedback is received.
